    Hi,

    we are using Jenkins to perform nightly builds for continuous integration.

    All projects uses MSBuild, so we can run headless build with Visual Studio.

    But we can not “activate” VisualGDB from console. To enter license information we should start GUI at least once.

    How we can provide our license information to VisualGDB without GUI? Is it possible to update some files of VisualGDB? Write keys to Windows Registry? Run executable files with parameters?

    Hi,

    Please try running VisualGDB.exe /about from the same user account you use for Jenkins in order to show the “About VisualGDB” window that allows entering the registration key.

    No, running VisualGDB.exe /about opens window “About VisualGDB”, but we can’t use GUI on our Jenkins. Command line only.

    Is it possible to enter license key from console or from script, without opening windows?

    No problem, you can specify the key via registry:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sysprogs\VisualGDB\Settings\RegistrationKey
